A Prehistoric Event: Dinosaur Birthday Party
Looking for a great theme to your child’s birthday party? Well, look no further. A dinosaur-themed birthday party is a great way to create a fun, memorable experience for your child and your guests.
Simple decorations can be a great way to enhance the theme of the party and create the atmosphere of being in the prehistoric ages:
- Cut out giant dinosaur foot prints out of construction paper and duct tape them to the path leading up to the house. Guests will be excited before they even enter the party!
- Twist and hang green streamers throughout the house with some spiraling down from the ceiling to the floor for a “jungle feel.”
- Bake a dinosaur themed cake--this will really impress your guests! Small, plastic dinosaurs, trees, shrubs, and volcano can be purchased for just a few extra dollars.
Your child and guests will have a great time playing these fun dinosaur games during the birthday party:
- Extinction: Have guests sit in a circle and pass around a dinosaur toy as music plays. When the music stops, whoever is holding the dinosaur becomes “extinct” and exits the circle. Continue until there is one person left in the circle.
- Pin the Tail on the Dinosaur: A new twist on an old favorite! Cut out a picture of a dinosaur and have each guest try to pin its tail back onto the picture while blindfolded.
- Dino-Dig: Hide dog bones or other artifacts around the yard or sandbox and have the kids search for them like paleontologists.
Enjoy Planning.
